b) For the super nerdy, if you are interested in running through a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay scenario, I might be able to whip up a 2-4 hour scenario. -OR- if YOU want to run ME through some bizarre scenario in your favorite RPG, I would be down with that too.

b) I have a soon-to-be 3 year old daughter. She'll likely be absent for most of the shindig, but I am sure she'll put in an appearance. If you hate awesome children, I invite you to go to Vancouver.

c) Step out of line and I will Glamdring your ass. I don't anticipate that being a problem given the crew I know in the area.

I NEED MORE CONCRETE DETAILS!
a) WHEN: October 23. Say 1:00 PM until we stop/pass out/go home. Anyone staying overnight is welcome to hitting up the nearby breakfast place and gaming further if there's a will. Maybe we'll all reconvene the next day? It's YOUR call!

b) FOOD? that's the question, isn't it? It depends on how many folks show. I am happy to acquire provisions and throw together a BBQ of epic proportions. We also have numerous tasty Pizza, BBQ, Mexican, Fancy options in the immediate area for comestibles.

So there it is. I advise that if you are interested you respond to this thread, PM me, IM me, text me, Call me, etc. Even if ONLY 1 PERSON comes, it will be EPIC!

UPDATE 9/22: Work + Life = insane for the next few weeks. Never you worry, faithful Bay Areans (Bay Areaites? Bayeans? Most Awesome of All GWJers?), I will update this thread as we get closer to the event. I'll be confirming attendees, soliciting suggestions, making sure everyone knows what will be available, and when.

Also, whether & how we might participate in the Child's Play events (if folks are inclined).

Finally, I decided to look up what has been released for Rock Band DLC in the last year or so. I then noticed that there are over 40 songs I want to acquire. Hopefully you'll want to sing along with one of them!

If you are coming by BART and I haven't already made arrangements you have two choices:

a. Because it's a ~30-40 minute turn around time, we should arrange to pick everyone up at once to maximize fun time for everyone!
b. At Millbrae station, you can switch to CalTrain and come to the San Carlos stop.

IF YOU ARE COMING BY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, POST HERE AND THE GROUP CAN AGREE ON TIMING/LOCATION.

Public Transport people (which I think is now Seraph and MightyMooquack): what time and which station? Millbrae BART or San Carlos CalTrain?

Anytime sounds fine - 3 is good. Folks will be arriving anywhere between 1 PM and 5 PM... just can call my cell when you get to Hillsdale (2 stops in advance) and we'll send a car to San Carlos station.

Anyone expecting a pick-up at Millbrae, we'll need to coordinate in advance since the turn-around time is longer.

Demiurge: I am putting in a request now for you to do an extra special Rockband performance of Lady Gaga's Poker Face. Please for the love of all that is holy do this for me and get it on video or I will cry myself to sleep for a week.

Home of the World Champion San Francisco Giants and Golden State Warriors!

Seconded, but I prefer Cartman's.

Edit: And I'm off. See you all there.

I believe this was an unmitigated success! Thanks in large part to all the awesome folks who turned out. I hope everyone got home safe. I apologize if I didn't get a chance to chat much with you, or perhaps say goodbye. My wife commented several times that everyone was really cool.

I really appreciate everyone showing up, thank you for your generosity, and I hope you'll all be willing to come back and finish off the giant pile of booze. 'Cause there's a lot of it!

Once, twice, a thousand times x2. It was great to see everyone this weekend, and it wouldn't have been possible without the warmth and generosity the HedgeWizard clan displayed in welcoming us into their home. Thank you.

Also, apologies for my rampant photogramania; an old friend surprised me Saturday with the return of a long-lent DSLR, and I really appreciate everyone tolerating me whipping it out throughout the night.

I had a fantastic time. Thanks so much to HedgeWizard and his family, you deserved the winning draw from the random number generator that you got. It was great to meet everyone, and I am very much looking forward to more of these in the future. Especially if they include more games of Ravenloft and Red Dragon Inn, but next time we will definitely need to actually drink every time we draw a drink card in Red Dragon Inn.
